Definitions

  • the invention relates to compositions, methods, processes, kits and devices for the design, preparation, manufacture and/or formulation of modulatory polynucleotides.
  • modulatory polynucleotides may be encoded by or within recombinant adeno-associated viruses (AAV) and may comprise artificial microRNAs, artificial pre- microRNAs and/or artificial pri-microRNAs.
  • AAV adeno-associated viruses
  • MicroRNAs are small, non-coding, single stranded ribonucleic acid molecules (RNAs), which are usually 19-25 nucleotides in length. More than a thousand microRNAs have been identified in mammalian genomes. The mature microRNAs primarily bind to the 3 ' untranslated region (3 '-UTR) of target messenger RNAs (mRNAs) through partially or fully pairing with the complementary sequences of target mRNAs, promoting the degradation of target mRNAs at a post-transcriptional level, and in some cases, inhibiting the initiation of translation. MicroRNAs play a critical role in many key biological processes, such as the regulation of cell cycle and growth, apoptosis, cell proliferation and tissue development.
  • the present invention provides such improved modalities in the form of artificial pri-, pre- and mature microRNA constructs and methods of their design.
  • These novel constructs may be synthetic stand-alone molecules or be encoded in a plasmid or expression vector for delivery to cells.
  • Such vectors include, but are not limited to adeno-associated viral vectors such as vector genomes of any of the AAV serotypes or other viral delivery vehicles such as lentivirus, etc.
  • compositions, methods, processes, kits and devices for the design, preparation, manufacture and/or formulation of modulatory polynucleotides are Described herein.
  • modulatory polynucleotides may be encoded by or contained within plasmids or vectors or recombinant adeno-associated viruses (AAV) and may comprise artificial microRNAs, artificial pre-microRNAs and/or artificial pri-microRNAs.

  • modulatory polynucleotides are provided which function as artificial microRNAs.
  • a “modulatory polynucleotide” is any nucleic acid polymer which functions to modulate (either increase or decrease) the level or amount of a target gene.
  • Modulatory polynucleotides include precursor molecules which are processed inside the cell prior to modulation.
  • Modulatory polynucleotides or the processed forms thereof may be encoded in a plasmid, vector, genome or other nucleic acid expression vector for delivery to a cell.
  • modulatory polynucleotides are designed as primary microRNA (pri-miRs) or precursor microRNAs (pre-miRs) which are processed within the cell to produce highly specific artificial microRNAs.
  • the modulatory polynucleotides may be designed based on the sequence or structure scaffold of a canonical or known microRNA, pri-microRNA or pre-microRNA.
  • Such sequences may correspond to any known microRNA or its precursor such as those taught in US Publication US2005/0261218 and US Publication US2005/0059005, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
  • microRNAs are 19-25 nucleotide long noncoding RNAs that bind to the 3'UTR of nucleic acid molecules and down-regulate gene expression either by reducing nucleic acid molecule stability or by inhibiting translation.
  • the modulatory polynucleotides of the invention may comprise one or more microRNA sequences, microRNA seeds or artificial microRNAs, e.g., sequences which function as a microRNA.
  • a microRNA sequence comprises a "seed" region, i.e., a sequence in the region of positions 2-9 of the mature microRNA, which sequence has perfect Watson-Crick
